    functional? it's front wheel drive.
    one of my 88 lx's is up for parts. good engine and transmission. pretty much everything is there. the fenders and hood are bad but other than that it's pretty good.

    RIP my beutiful 5g coupe. May the villans rot in hell!

    let's not turn this into another argument about the effectiveness of rear spoilers on front wheel drive cars. there have been a million of those.

    give us some info on that reat strut tower brace.

    As long as the cars have wheels in the front and the back.... a front and rear spoiler will always be functional, but there are some cases where you could over do it.

    anyways i like the spoiler. and that wide body kit has me interested in the finished project.

    Hehe, using your kitties for models I see.

    I had to make a few bends in it and presto.
    the cats just had to have there pics taken too ofcourse.

    don't get me wrong. my 94 had a small understated wing that sits about 6 inches off of the deck lid. it just adds to the appearance and the sleek lines of the car. i just don't like the big aluminum wings. it looks like something you would find on a small air craft to me. but to each his own.

    not really my style but they look pretty good. i prefer to leave them to IROCs and custom vans, but you did them pretty tastefully and discreet. i like them.

    i'll be interested to see the progression of this project. good luck on it. OH YEAH!! you need to send the tire&wheel back to wherever you got them. there's a cat stickin out of it. poor little kitty probably didn't know what hit him. haha, j/k. seriously though, keep us posted. looks like you've got some good ideas and we'll see where they lead.

    Yo seriously i am not, a big fan of the hood luvers and i am sure as hell they are not functional and also the hood pins. But thats not the point. The hood luvers looks like stamped holes cause from the front, if anyone can see ur hood, its not a good design, ur gonna be getting water in there and its directly to ur fuse box and ur battery, not a good idea. Well, have fun man.

    I like them I do have to move the battery though I do think the right side one is functional though because of the way air flowes.
